In connection with the request received at the
November 1, 2010 meeting from Carencro Heights School for Jekel Woods
for a flute, which was approved conditionally, Cynthia was able to
contact the teacher and the parent, after many attempts, and it was
revealed that the Application was in error and that the student
already has a flute and needed only replacement flute pads at a cost
of $80.00 and the parent will pay 25% or $20.00 and Shining Light
will pay 75% or $60.00.
Upon presenting this information to
Carolyn, the requested change in the Application was approved.
In connection with the requests received at the November 1, 2010 meeting from Broadmoor Elementary for Norgelis Hidalgo for field trip 10-19-10; and from Duson Elementary for field trips on 10-25-10 for Yerimi Infante, Malachi Kirkland, Heaven Carter and Hillary Johnson, which were all approved on condition the students did go on the trips (since the dates had passed) and that the teachers needed reimbursement, it was determined by Carolyn that all students did make the trips, thus the checks were mailed for these reimbursements.
